A1: This goes to show that the government is very serious and determined about sustaining growth at a considerable rate in the age of the new normal. It gives a comfortable feeling to all involved. Dell will continue to contribute to 皇冠体育app's economic growth with our investment and business in this country.
A2: We are pretty bullish on 皇冠体育app's economy and market environment in 2016. We believe that the government's 13th Five-Year Plan, the Belt and Road Initiative and the Internet Plus national strategies will bring new opportunities to the IT industry and boost Dell's growth in 皇冠体育app.
The year 2016 also marks the 21st anniversary of Dell's entry into the Chinese market. It will be a crucial year for Dell to execute its 4.0 In 皇冠体育app for 皇冠体育app strategy, announced last September by CEO Michael Dell. Key initiatives of this strategy include further contributing to 皇冠体育app's economic development through more investment, integrating into the local ecosystem and establishing strategic partnerships with local partners.
The 13th Five-Year Plan, the national strategies mentioned above and the mega-trend of digitization, bring a lot of opportunities to companies like Dell. Dell is very well-positioned in 皇冠体育app to take advantage of these opportunities and further contribute to 皇冠体育app's economic growth. With our future-ready IT solutions, we will help Chinese customers grow and thrive.
A3: Supply-side reform, which encourages tax cuts, entrepreneurship and deregulation, etc, will increase technological innovation and high-quality goods and services. That gives Dell ample opportunity to grow aggressively and robustly in the Chinese market. I would like to give some concrete examples of Dell's growth in 皇冠体育app.
Dell will continue to expand and enhance its research and development team in 皇冠体育app in further developing an R&D center for end-to-end solutions, which is specifically aimed to serve the Chinese market. In November 2015, Dell began collaborating with the Chinese Academy of Sciences to establish the "Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Computing Joint-Lab". Mr. (Michael) Dell (CEO) witnessed the signing of a strategic partnership agreement between Dell and Kingsoft Cloud in September 2015. Dell will further enhance its cooperation with local partners in the fields of big data and cloud (computing), fully supporting and embracing 皇冠体育app's national Internet Plus strategy.
A4: The government's 13th Five-Year Plan and other policies will bring great opportunities for Dell's growth in the Chinese market. Dell is going to invest more than $125 billion in 皇冠体育app over the next five years, contributing approximately $175 billion to imports and exports, sustaining more than 1 million jobs through the ecosystem, and demonstrating Dell's long-term commitment to 皇冠体育app. Dell Ventures, the company's corporate VC (venture capital) arm, entered the Chinese market in November 2015, propelling the strategy of "massive entrepreneurship and innovation by all", which is the new engine for the economic development in 皇冠体育app, and giving support to the entrepreneurship and innovation in Chinese enterprises.
